  • #122 In this video I look at a low cost last minute solution to shielding - the flux band. Its a form of magnetic field shielding that can provide quite a bit of emissions reduction but it can be implemented without having a major impact in design.

      I love Sweden: I've never been there- but as a literate (and at the moment apparently a little bit drunk and stoned- but I meant to do that... or those) individual, who is not a xenophobe (more of a musician-anthropologist-geologist-sociologist), Sweden does at least on the surface of it... appear to be one of the best countries in the world... for the regular citizens therein, that is.
      of course, I welcome enlightenment to the reality or specifics of this... whatever it or they may be.
      yeah... i live in the "good old U.S of "sorry world: we didn't all vote for him" A".
      despite how Americans tend to boast (braggarts that we are), we on average are a bunch of ignorant, arrogant, anti-science (mired in religious Dogma) nitwits.
      a "nit" is a louse egg. "wit" comes from the old English "witt" pertaining to intelligence or understanding or some such... in the case we're interested.
      get ready: I might have to show up and ask for asylum soon... though honestly, I'll probably wind up in Mexico... or Canada, but probably Mexico: I don't think I know anybody in Canada...
      please wish me luck, if you can afford to.
      peace be upon you, sir... from the burnt-out remains of Northern California, area code- third planet from our Star = planet "Earth".
      you can't miss it: the blue one with all the hydrogen... and oxygen.
      It's a long way to the next watering hole.
      peace... and

      shielding
      Hello,
      I have seen your answer about shielding.
      Here is my case, ex dj and producer in the 90s.
      Got deep EHS electrosensibility with juditial sentence since 2015, used to live close to a huge militar radar/antenna for submarines and got a huge cell tower in my corner that killed of cancer half a street.
      Now I live isolated in natural park for birds with 0 EMF.
      appart of low frequency and hi frequency, I can´t stand magnetical radiation from psus, and got tons of $$ synths as EMS, MOOGs etc.
      A person as me has symbtoms over 30 nanoteslas and per example the psu of 1 case of my Doepfer modular reaches 19.000!
      We got 2 options, extract the psus and put them 3 meters away, since the radiation leaves, but this is a mess on 20.000$ as a EMS VCS3, on the best case a clone of the psu should be made to leave the original board untouched and bypass it. etc or wrap the psus with this material designed for it
      electrocontaminacion.net/pro...-mumetal-mcl61
      We are failing at this time but yet got to do more proves, also the side effect in case we could do it is the lack of vents and more heat that can do the already unstable synths be more unstable due to way more heat.
      Meanwhile we are trying with cheap digital stuff as Nord Lead 2 to avoid damage those vintage jewels.
      Could you help please?, I am desperate.
      thanks!

    Pretty good explanation of what a flux band does. Chances are better to observe some effect when a commercial product that already comes with a flux band in place is modified by removing it. Still not a 100% guarantee that is was really necessary, but probably better chances to find something is off :)

    • @FesZElectronics
      @FesZElectronics  3 роки тому +4

      In my particular case I could not notice a difference, probably because I was mainly measuring magnetic fields. Grounding the flux band should have a more pronounced effect on electric fields.

  • @piconano
    @piconano 3 роки тому

    Could it be that they are trying to ground the electric field generated around the band?

    You use copper for magnetic shielding? Isn’t copper diamagnetic (mu_r ~ 1)? Why should the magnet field catched up by this material?

    • @FesZElectronics
      @FesZElectronics  3 роки тому +1

      The principle is the same as the way Eddy currents get induced into any conductive material. It helps if the material is both conductive and with a permeability above 1 but, the magnetic permeability is not mandatory. Especially at higher frequencies, this parameter becomes less important.

    Hello, very interesting topic. However, I also want to improve EMC/EMI protection during my design stage, how could I done well for a flyback? Is there any method by winding, wire types, ferrite materials or something?

    • @FesZElectronics
      @FesZElectronics  2 роки тому +1

      I guess the only thing you can do from a construction point of view on a transformer is add a shielding layer inside of it - between primary and secondary. Or, if budget allows, using a toroid. The ferrite material, or how you wind it should not have a big impact on EMI.

    will that copper band work?

    • @FesZElectronics
      @FesZElectronics  3 роки тому +2

      Some commercial audio amplifiers with laminate transformers do use this. I expect that the same principle is valid there - by adding this band, the intensity of the magnetic fields escaping from the transformer are reduced so there is less noise induced into the circuit.
